About Us
Reclaim your spaces and life with the help of KNS Junk Removal Services.
Local, veteran-owned and family-operated, we provide 5-star rated junk removal, dumpster rentals, and cleanup services in Forest Lake, and the surrounding Minnesota communities.
Who We Are
KNS Junk Removal Services started with a simple idea. Spencer and Katie Christensen, a husband and wife team, noticed their town needed help with junk removal. They weren’t happy with their old jobs and decided to start a new journey. They studied hard and started this company. Now, they help people in Minnesota get rid of things they don't need, in a way that's good for the planet. They believe not everything that looks like "junk" should be thrown away. Some things can find new homes, get recycled, or be donated to someone who needs them.
Our Core Values
Here at KNS Junk Removal Services, we care about three big things: keeping our customers happy, being friendly to the earth, and being a name you can trust. We work hard to recycle or donate items instead of just throwing everything away. This way, we help our community and our planet.
Junk Removal Services We Offer
We promise to care for our earth. We work with recycling centers and donate usable items to keep them out of landfills. Our commitment to giving back and serving our community made us Nextdoor’s Neighbourhood Fave in 2023.

Community Involvement
Community involvement is a big deal to us at KNS Junk Removal Services. Besides our main job of helping people clear out unwanted items, we also love joining hands with our neighbors to make our area a better place. Here's how we dive into our community:
Refer a Veteran program
We have a soft spot for our veterans. They've done so much for us, and we want to give back. Through our Refer a Veteran program, we show our thanks and help out veterans in a special way.
Community Cleanup
We adore our community and aim to keep it nice and tidy. Our Community Cleanup events are fun days where we, along with folks from around the town, clean up public places. It's all about making our neighborhoods look good and spending time together.
Community Events We’ve Participated In
Taking part in local events is something we look forward to. Whether it's a fun Fourth of July parade in Forest Lake MN or a local fair, we are there with our trucks, ready to join in the fun. But that’s not all. This year, we proudly teamed up with the Invisible Wounds Project. In June, we gave away 10% of what we earned to support their cause. We were also there to help with trash services at the 2023 Freedom Fest and the Bent Brewery BBQ Contest, both fantastic events hosted by the Invisible Wounds Project. And oh, we sponsored a team to play in the 2023 Golf Tournament too!
Our involvement doesn’t stop there. We joined the local Forest Lake chamber to mingle with other small businesses around. It’s awesome to attend events and expos, grow our business, and meet wonderful people in the community. Through these gatherings, we not only spread the word about our services but also get to know our neighbors better.
Our journey in community involvement is all about caring, connecting, and contributing. Together with our lovely neighbors, we believe we can make a big difference in our little corner of the world.
The Invisible Wounds Project
KNS Junk Removal Services proudly partnered with the Invisible wounds Project for the month of June 2023.
We donated 10% of our earnings to the cause, and provided trash services for the 2023 Freedom Fest and the Bent Brewery BBQ Contest hosted by Invisible Wounds project.
We also had the opportunity to sponsor a team to compete in the
2023 Invisible Wounds Charity Golf Tournament
and look forward to doing it again next year.
